I wish Peterson made brass in 6.5X47 Lapua - is there a reason why they don't?
The reason lapua makes 220 russian brass instead of 6ppc brass is the liability. We shoot extreme pressures in the ppc and you cant get that type pressure in a 220 russian so id suspect peterson would do the same. Theres been a few companies that made ppc brass and it didnt work out so well for them. Im betting if peterson made 220russian brass as good as their other brass it would be a big seller and they would quickly have a shortage of the other offeringsthey currently have. I know if i had a brass company i wouldnt dare make brass labeled 6ppc knowing what we do with it.
6ppc usa is a totally different cartridge than what we shoot in br competitions. No norma brass on the line either. 6ppc usa is the chambering that sako used in their varmint rifles.
Every ppc building gunsmith thats successful has his own idea of reamer design. It would be hard to standardize a ppc round besides whats already done- the usa version
Yeah I noticed there's a ton of different variations. Usually in the body taper and neck length. A good taper on the body and long neck on the standardized brass could be fireformed to any variation. But then I suppose the 220 Russian brass already does that for you guys.
